Uncertain Terms (Version 2)
Time stands still
Now I need you
To turn back the hands
The hands on the clock one more time
We’ve got no time to kill
I want to be with you
I want to be there when you call
Out in the dark
Lost in the gray
How can I see you this way
Uncertain terms
And when you’ve lost your way with words
You think I don’t listen
You think I don’t hear but I do
You just repeat yourself
You want to be with me
You want to be still you don’t call
Out in the dark
Lost in the gray
How can I see you this way
How can I hear you
I cannot be near you today
